Wireless Signal Drop

Hi,

my Netgear wndr4500v3 is constantly dropping signal every hour. the internet and power indicators remain constant however the indicator on 2.5ghz and 5ghz signs goes off every couple of hours, I'm currently on the latest firmware. I've also tried resetting the router but still the problem persists. This happens with every ISP, not with any particular isp. Can u guide me on how to go about it or why is the problem occurring.

 

thank you

    ankit96barthwal Normally, this should be fixed by firmware upgrade.

    Since you already updated the firmware and have done reset maybe it's time to get a new router.
